Re: [tor-talk] Surge in Users

[iwanlegit@xxxxxxx]

Thanks for helpful comments and references!

I may have understood that there are:
- Research Safety Board
- AS number approach
- Nine (10?) individuals who run the directory authorities and are 
independent of the control of torproject
- Privcount approach
- Tor design: It doesn't hide using Tor. It hides what users do.

Tor developers are making efforts to protect privacy of users, I can 
understand it at least. In truth, I didn't worry about whether the 
directory authorities could do dangerously or not. I hope that operators 
of the directory authorities will provide analyses or thoughts about the 
rapid increase of relay users from their own viewpoints when they can.

BTW, I didn't expect that you -- who is an operator of one of the 
directory authorities, and who is an original developer of Tor -- would 
reply to my question. Great place here is! Is it free of charge for me 
to use this place? :D

Thanks,
Iwanlegit
